I mean, Downfall is right there.

You called someone brain-damaged.
I’m not buying your game, specifically because you did that.

Disco Elysium has helped polish my English, and using those character concepts seems to help facilitate various lines of thought. Plus, since they’re now fairly well-known, I can use them as a short-hand for categories of feelings.

Honestly everyone needs therapy, but when you’re trans, you just *know*. You know deep down in your shivers, in your half-light. You know in a way that cis people can articulate in language, but will never truly be able to feel, to understand, to appreciate, to resonate.

Visibly queer minority here! I’m probably gonna go to jail sometime in the next year for being trans in public. Until I do though, I’ve been lobbying state congress about some of the bills on the docket.
- Comment on Anon has a busy day 1 week ago:
Dark patterns in gaming are the absolute worst and although I understand that they’re structured to cater to the worst impulses in human thought patterns, I still don’t understand why people can’t quit.
Then again, folks don’t quit drugs easy either.

Google Translate says that reads “Even Our Faces Got Eaten.”

I’ve been told they’re Spanish?

I didn’t grow up in a place where Christianity was the norm, so nope, never baptized. I’ll just pirate some Jesus, that’s what he’d want.
- Comment on Snap, Crackle, Transubstantiate 3 weeks ago:
Sounds to me like I need to burgle mass and eat some Jesus on the down-low then.

You do get it. Also, there’s not monsters, just, uh, extruded humans coming out the other side.

The artist’s name is Junji Ito, so that you have an accurate search term and can find more of his works.
In real life, he’s a delightful and bright guy, but on the page, he gets pretty fucked up real quick. Good luck.
(I think most of my problem with Junji Ito is that he comes up with an incredibly graphic shock panel and then crafts the story around one or two violent bits of art, rather than making the art in service to the story. His pattern can get a bit repetitive.)
- Comment on Wish I could charge $100 a call attempt to these people 4 weeks ago:
My ring tone is two longs and a short and a pause, vibrating on my right wrist. No one can hear it, and I get to know when someone’s leaving me a voicemail cause I don’t answer my phone.

And the example they use is a guy shooting another guy on TV.

- Comment on How many games do you manage to play at the same time? 1 month ago:
A few. I’m playing through the bonus campaigns of Etherfields, while looking longingly at ISS Vanguard which I haven’t picked up in a week, while playing one-shot games of stuff like Twinfold and Balatro and Slay the Spire. Finished Silent Hill 2R recently and that was awesome.
I know this isn’t true for everyone, but narrative solo board gaming is really, really good for me, and lets me do a lot of gaming that I wouldn’t otherwise be able to do, what with my brain being all busted with stroke damage.

Fuck it, I’m in.
It’s honestly the best but of American TV yet made.

I bet it’s even more than a thousand dollars a year!
If it isn’t, I’m so sorry buddy, and I hope your situation improves somehow.
- Comment on Hypothetically, if some mysterious force started to jam every radio frequency, how would modern day society adapt to this? 1 month ago:
This is an underpinning of the plot of Final Fantasy VIII, where a sorceress with incredible power is entombed and sent to space, and her screaming drowns out all the radio frequencies on the planet.

But molecularly, not just by the liter, the air you breathe is guaranteed to contain a molecule of Caesar’s last breath from when he was stabbed with every breath we take. There’s way more air than water, so it stands to reason that not only are you drinking water that Hitler has drunk, you’re drinking Hitler’s pee! And Alex Trebek’s pee, I suppose.

Aw boo, the damn thing won’t let me load a video of me laughing to this joke, which would be kind of a mediocre chuckle where you could sense a subtle lack of sincerity.
- Comment on What are your favorite "gotta go in blind" games? 2 months ago:
Funny enough, I was in this situation. Didn’t really grow up in a culture and time that was heavy about Star Wars. Someone pointed out to me that my last name backwards was Anakin, harped on me to watch Star Wars, and I got about forty minutes in before I realized I just wasn’t into it.
There are still some of us living under rocks.

Women. Queer people. Non-white people. Hell, even white straight cis evangelical Christian rich men who die from being sick.
There will be so much death.
It will be unending.

We may yet manage as a country, but the millions that die from this election won’t get to see it.
- Comment on Amateur Entomologists 3 months ago:
Absolutely. It is a very short JRPG that wastes no time and has no filler. I finish it about monthly.
The only discernible flaw is that one dialog box is missing a closing quotation mark.

I am now reading every goddamn one of these you write. If only the other screenshot posters would put forth your respect and effort, we could have an honest gaming journal going.

I like the effort you put into these posts. Much better than just a simple screenshot. You’ve sold me on this game.
